Students could then write about the picture they drew after listening to the book ]]> 2022-04-16 21:59:54 UTC https://padlet.com/tlaguna31/Bookmarks/wish/2145692379 tlaguna31 https://padlet.com/tlaguna31/Bookmarks/wish/2145694366 This is an activity where students make a multicultural doll based on where they or their family is from. Students will create their doll with different materials provided and then present it to the class. It is a good opportunity for students to practice oral speaking and listening skills ]]> 2022-04-16 22:05:38 UTC https://padlet.com/tlaguna31/Bookmarks/wish/2145694366 tlaguna31 https://padlet.com/tlaguna31/Bookmarks/wish/2145697399 This a great book to read when covering a unit on diversity. It will teach students about the Mexican culture and expose them to food from a different country. In addition, I would create a graphic organizer where students will be able to write the events that happened in the story. ]]> 2022-04-16 22:14:42 UTC https://padlet.com/tlaguna31/Bookmarks/wish/2145697399 tlaguna31 https://padlet.com/tlaguna31/Bookmarks/wish/2145702915 This book allows students to see the many different colors of crayons and the purpose of each. It will help them understand that every student is a different color like the crayons but they each have a purpose. The activity will help them practice their writing skills and organize their thoughts. ]]> 2022-04-16 22:31:51 UTC https://padlet.com/tlaguna31/Bookmarks/wish/2145702915 tlaguna31 https://padlet.com/tlaguna31/Bookmarks/wish/2145706791 This story was animated into a video, and it was in the form of a poem. It teaches students that everyone is unique and one should not dislike another person because of what they look like but instead appreciate their talents. I would have students write what they learned after watching the video. ]]> 2022-04-16 22:43:42 UTC https://padlet.com/tlaguna31/Bookmarks/wish/2145706791 tlaguna31 https://padlet.com/tlaguna31/Bookmarks/wish/2145721152 This activity involves making play dough with different colors with the whole class to represent diversity around the world. I would create the play dough step by step on a big table and have the students stand or sit around the table to watch. I would explain how the play dough starts off white and as we add food dye, they turn into different colors, but I would reiterate that it is still play dough and it doesn't change. Every child has a different skin color but they are all still children. ]]> 2022-04-16 23:30:35 UTC https://padlet.com/tlaguna31/Bookmarks/wish/2145721152 tlaguna31 https://padlet.com/tlaguna31/Bookmarks/wish/2145731770 This is a compare and contrast chart I would use in order for students to differentiate similarities and differences between each other. I would put students into pairs and have them think about what they have the same and what they have different. ]]> 2022-04-17 00:04:30 UTC https://padlet.com/tlaguna31/Bookmarks/wish/2145731770 tlaguna31 https://padlet.com/tlaguna31/Bookmarks/wish/2145737237 This book is about a boy who lives in America and a boy who lives in India and although they live far away from each other, they communicate with letters and pictures and realize that although they are from different countries, they are still the same in many ways. I would use this book to teach students that people in other countries are no different than us. Then I would have them do a response to reading to check for understanding. ]]> 2022-04-17 00:22:56 UTC https://padlet.com/tlaguna31/Bookmarks/wish/2145737237 tlaguna31 https://padlet.com/tlaguna31/Bookmarks/wish/2145743068 This activity allows students to learn about the different types of foods around the world. I would show students two videos of two different countries and then give them a colorless chart similar to this one so that they can label the correct food to the correct country and color it. ]]> 2022-04-17 00:42:23 UTC https://padlet.com/tlaguna31/Bookmarks/wish/2145743068 tlaguna31 https://padlet.com/tlaguna31/Bookmarks/wish/2165645094 This book talks about different skin colors and how they are all beautiful. It could be used in a culture and diversity unit to teach children to love their skin color and it makes each person unique. ]]> 2022-05-01 07:24:34 UTC https://padlet.com/tlaguna31/Bookmarks/wish/2165645094
